Groundplan comes with four pre-built responsive event calendars that display all your events.  There are a number of arguments you can include to customize the functionality of this calendar.

Calendar Shortcode

For quick testing purposes, you can include the Groundplan events calendar using a shortcode in any WYSIWYG field.

Example Shortcode Usages 

Monthly Calendar

[gp-calendar type="all" sold_out_message="Call box office"]

Mini Calendar with date details wrapper

[gp-calendar type="mini" wrapper_class="my-calendar-skin" detail_container="#date-details" show_days="90" ]
<div id="date-details"></div>

Mini Calendar for event detail page - with date details and event post ID

[gp-calendar type="mini" wrapper_class="my-calendar-skin" detail_container="#date-details" show_days="90" event_ids="{$post->ID}" ]
<div id="date-details"></div>

Adding Calendars to theme templates

For most installations, you'll want to use the XDGPCalendar class in your templates to configure the calendar exactly how you want.

To create one page per event, add a single-mc_event.php file to your theme folder and paste and modify the following code:
